With the overwhelming enthusiasm this thread prompted I figure I will add to it. Can never have too much excitement!!

So it seems the SBC owned greensheet would give market prices of the cards they graded. Sounds like an early SMR....

lol...I like it.....nice taste of the past!

Goodness...1990...Just completed soph year of college :( :o

Dark Ages
 

Graduated from college and got married that year. At least one of them lasted. . . :eek:

More importantly: Which one cost more? :D

Oh my, I could have wrote the exact same post!!!! :)

I was a freshman in college and selling at small shows a couple times a month in 1990. I honestly don't remember SBC (or any graded cards for that matter) back then.

That depends on whether we are talking about emotional or financial cost!

I was going through some stacks of stuff and found this old green sheet again, so thought I would bump the thread. It's been a few years. And I think this was mentioned recently in a thread.

That SBC Green Sheet is a blast from the past. I am not sure if any of the listed dealers are still active. Would love to see some of the other pages if you have images handy.

This is cool Leon! Thanks for bumping the thread up!!!

Two ex wives later, I have been better at selecting cards.....:eek:

As Leon preaches (:D), every thread needs a card. I've had this SBC slab for roughly 25-30 years.

Bill Hughes is still active, spoke to him this weekend at a show.

Here are a few more....

Thanks Leon. It is interesting to look at some of these old publications.

Thanks Leon. I looked at a few T206s and the compounded annual return for the last 32 years has been about 8%. Pretty solid but I suspect less than many might expect.

Any known connection between SBC and SGC? Holders and flips look very similar to the early SGC slabs….
